Glasgow's Art & Heritage

Glasgow’s heritage spans from the medieval Provand’s Lordship to the Victorian grandeur of Kelvingrove Art Gallery, which houses masterpieces by Salvador Dalí and Rembrandt. The city’s unique aesthetic is defined by Charles Rennie Mackintosh’s architectural legacy, showcased at The Lighthouse, House for an Art Lover, and the Mackintosh Church. Modern landmarks like Zaha Hadid’s Riverside Museum and the Glasgow Science Centre contrast with historic sites like the Glasgow Necropolis and George Square’s civic monuments. Social history is preserved at the People’s Palace and the National Trust's Tenement House.
